Answer:

Whenever you come across such a questio, first thing that needs to be done is writing it in algebraic language. So, here, a number, say x, is added with 2/3rd of itself to get 55. So,

[x + (2x/3)] = 55

Take LCM,

5x/3 = 55.

Solve for x and we get the value of x as 33.

I hope my answer was helpful to you.

Let the number be x.

First part of the problem: a no. Added to the 2/3rd of its own.

x + (2/3)x

Second part: is equal to 55

x + (2/3)x = 55

=> (5/3)x=55

=> x= (55*3)/5

=>x=11*3

=> x=33

Hence,the original number is 33.

Rechecking through answer.

If 33 is the original number, Lets check if 22 is its 2/3rd.

33*(2/3)=>11*2=>22

Hence proved.
